ORIGINAL: popeye1250 I was thinking that we need a CAR thread in here to break things up a bit. And it's not just for us guys either, ladies are welcome in here too! Today I was comming back from the market and saw a car being taken away from the parking lot on the back of a flat bed truck. It was a LEXUS! LOL, there was something about how "great" those cars are in a thread a few weeks ago and that's what made me think of this thread. Gee, $80,000 for a car and they have to lug it to the shop on a flat bed? They couldn't even tow it? Maybe it had something to do with the all wheel drive or transmission. I've always been a Ford man myself, Mercurys but I've owned Ford pick up trucks and had no problems with them and that was in New England winters! You can really beat on them if you want and it doesn't bother them at all. You just do routine maintainance on them and they go forever! As I said before I have a friend who had a LEXUS and had nothing but problems with it. He bought a 2003 Corvette and traded the pos Lexus in for it. Now just because I'm a Ford man doesn't mean I don't like GMC products. I like GMC pick ups, Cadillacs but not Chevys. So go ahead and comment. Heh.... I drive a '97 Honda Accord with with 260k miles on it, but I've got a 40x55 pole barn on my property with 350-500k worth of completely restored various late 60's- early70's muscle cars in it. They're master works of art and American ingenuity ; just there for me to look at and admire once in a while. ; } - R Ranger, yeah, those cars certainly were works of art! Like the '66-'69 Chevelles with the 396's in them and the GTOs of that era too. Then of course the Mopar Dodges and Plymouths with the 426 Hemi engines that would really scream. And the Mustang "Cobras."
